Workshop Explanation: 

Todaro-Bravo System Seminar:

A special seminar dedicated to the in-depth explanation of the
tango system used by Masters Antonio Todaro and Raul Bravo.

Figures from the system will be taught and explained in the
authentic way of Antonio Todaro.

A detailed explanation of the system and its basic, key principles
will be given so that the dancers may discover their own variations
and open the door to a whole world of possibilities.

Tango al Reves: 

Anton and Natalie are the only couple in the world today who
teach this exciting and fun form of tango from the 1950s.

An emphasis is placed on leading and following the figures and on
improvisation and not just choreography. Anton teaches the leaders
how to improvise in this form of tango and Natalie teaches the
followers how to concentrate on the lead and follow well.

Anton and Natalie are considered one of the most authentic
proponents of the style of dance of Maestro Antonio Todaro today
and with great respect proudly keep it alive today.

In Buenos Aires, they are protégées and assistants to the renowned
maestro Raul Bravo, creator of the "Todaro-Bravo Tango System"
together with Antonio Todaro.

In addition to this style of tango, they also specialize in the
milonguero style tango of the 1940s and 1950s as well as "Tango
al Revés."

In their classes an emphasis is put on strong, powerful figures
with speed, accuracy, clean technique and a close connection to
the music.  They can, however, teach basic, clean social Salon
Tango starting with the basics of balance, walking, posture,
proper leading for the men and effective following for the ladies.

We would like to thank you for all your support the past 2 years
for events held at the Melody Club.
